Interpret3C: Interpretable Student Clustering Through Individualized Feature Selection

Tanja Christina Käser Jacober, Paola Mejia Domenzain, Vinitra Swamy, Julian Thomas Blackwell

Clustering in education, particularly in large-scale online environments like MOOCs, is essential for understanding and adapting to diverse student needs. However, the effectiveness of clustering depends on its interpretability, which becomes challenging w ...

Scalable Metaprogramming in Scala 3

Nicolas Alexander Stucki

A metaprogrammer should be able to reason about the semantics of the generated code. Multi-stage programming introduced an elegant and powerful solution to this problem. It follows a semantically driven approach to code generation, where semantics are full ...

Type-Level Programming with Match Types

Martin Odersky, Olivier Eric Paul Blanvillain

Type-level programming is becoming more and more popular in the realm of functional programming. However, the combination of type-level programming and subtyping remains largely unexplored in practical programming languages. This paper presents match types ...

Towards elucidating the structural and cellular determinants of a-synuclein seeding and toxicity

Somanath Jagannath

Although it has been nearly two and half decades since the discovery of alpha-synuclein (aSyn) as the major component of Lewy bodies (LBs), our understanding of the involvement of different aSyn species, their seeding, spreading and toxicity in Parkinson's ...

Virtual ADTs for Portable Metaprogramming

Martin Odersky, Nicolas Alexander Stucki

Scala 3 provides a metaprogramming interface that represents the abstract syntax tree definitions using algebraic data types. To allow the compiler to freely evolve without breaking the metaprogramming interface, we present virtual algebraic data types (or ...

On the relation between landscape beauty and land cover: A case study in the U.K. at Sentinel-2 resolution with interpretable AI

Devis Tuia

The environment where we live and recreate can have a significant effect on our well-being. More beautiful landscapes have considerable benefits to both health and quality of life. When we chose where to live or our next holiday destination, we do so accor ...

EVA: An Encrypted Vector Arithmetic Language and Compiler for Efficient Homomorphic Computation

Blagovesta Hristova Kostova

Fully-Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) offers powerful capabilities by enabling secure offloading of both storage and computation, and recent innovations in schemes and implementations have made it all the more attractive. At the same time, FHE is notoriously ...

A numerical study on the coupled hydro-mechanical behaviour of compacted bentonite

Lyesse Laloui, Alessio Ferrari, Jose Antonio Bosch Llufriu

Understanding the mechanical behaviour of compacted bentonite upon re-saturation is of outmost importance in most designs of nuclear waste disposal repositories. The behaviour of bentonite is characterized by its stress-path dependency and it is typically ...

Zippy LL(1) Parsing with Derivatives

Viktor Kuncak, Jad Hamza, Romain Edelmann

In this paper, we present an efficient, functional, and formally verified parsing algorithm for LL(1) context-free expressions based on the concept of derivatives of formal languages. Parsing with derivatives is an elegant parsing technique, which, in the ...

Compiler Generation for Performance-Oriented Embedded DSLs (Short Paper)

Christoph Koch, Amir Shaikhha, Vojin Jovanovic

In this paper, we present a framework for generating optimizing compilers for performance-oriented embedded DSLs (EDSLs). This framework provides facilities to automatically generate the boilerplate code required for building DSL compilers on top of the ex ...

Code Generation in Computational Neuroscience: A Review of Tools and Techniques

Pramod Shivaji Kumbhar

Advances in experimental techniques and computational power allowing researchers to gather anatomical and electrophysiological data at unprecedented levels of detail have fostered the development of increasingly complex models in computational neuroscience ...

A Data-Driven Method for Computing Fixed-Structure Low-Order Controllers With H∞ Performance

Alireza Karimi, Achille Nicoletti

Recently, a new data-driven method for robust control with H∞ performance has been proposed. This method is based on convex optimization and converges to the optimal performance when the controller order increases. However, for low-order controllers, the p ...

Type Soundness Proofs with Definitional Interpreters

Tiark Rompf, Nada Amin

While type soundness proofs are taught in every graduate PL class, the gap between realistic languages and what is accessible to formal proofs is large. In the case of Scala, it has been shown that its formal model, the Dependent Object Types (DOT) calculu ...

Improving Scalability of Symbolic Execution for Software with Complex Environment Interfaces

Stefan Bucur

Manual software testing is laborious and prone to human error. Yet, among practitioners, it is the most popular method for quality assurance. Automating the test case generation promises better effectiveness, especially for exposing corner-case bugs. Symbo ...

High System-Code Security with Low Overhead

George Candea, Johannes Kinder, Volodymyr Kuznetsov, Jonas Benedict Wagner

Security vulnerabilities plague modern systems because writing secure systems code is hard. Promising approaches can retrofit security automatically via runtime checks that implement the desired security policy; these checks guard critical operations, like ...

Prototyping Symbolic Execution Engines for Interpreted Languages

George Candea, Johannes Kinder, Stefan Bucur

Symbolic execution is being successfully used to automatically test statically compiled code. However, increasingly more systems and applications are written in dynamic interpreted languages like Python. Building a new symbolic execution engine is a monume ...

Representation of Medical Guidelines with a Computer Interpretable Model

Giovanni De Micheli, Alena Simalatsar, Wenqi You Dubout

Nowadays medical software is tightly coupled with medical devices that perform patient state monitoring and lately even some basic treatment procedures. Medical guidelines (GLs) can be seen as specification of a medical system which requires their computer ...

Surgical Precision JIT Compilers

Tiark Rompf

Just-in-time (JIT) compilation of running programs provides more optimization opportunities than offline compilation. Modern JIT compilers, such as those in virtual machines like Oracle's HotSpot for Java or Google's V8 for JavaScript, rely on dynamic prof ...

Miniboxing: Improving the Speed to Code Size Tradeoff in Parametric Polymorphism Translations

Martin Odersky, Vlad Ureche

Parametric polymorphism enables code reuse and type safety. Underneath the uniform interface exposed to programmers, however, its low level implementation has to cope with inherently non-uniform data: value types of different sizes and semantics (bytes, in ...
